Three Kingdoms: The opening incorporates Li Cunxiao

Chapter 439 Cao Zihuan temporarily replaces Yunhui as deputy general

After all, he murdered his own brother, and Cai felt a little sad on his face.

Only after Cai Mao had completely stopped moving, she slowly stood up and raised her hands to cover his eyelids so that her brother would not die in silence.

At this time, Liu Biao opened the door and came in. He smiled and cupped his hands at Mrs. Cai: "Madam, you understand the great righteousness and will help me in Jingzhou to eliminate a great harm."

"Now that things have happened, I still say that these things have been done. For the present plan, I asked my husband to gather the old troops under De Gui's command and take advantage of the situation to defeat Huang Zu of Jiangxia."

Since the Cai family was able to kill Liu Biao for Liu Cong's throne, now she can naturally kill her own brother for Liu Cong's sake.

In fact, since Liu Qi's death, the conflict between her and Liu Biao has not been as strong as before.

Now that she's on the pirate ship, she naturally can't get off. Now she can only go all the way to the dark side. Either Cao Cao dies, or she takes the Cai family and dies with her.

Of course, before the news came back, she already thought Cao Cao was a dead man.

She is a woman, but she doesn't know anything about war or military affairs.

To her, fighting is the simplest arithmetic problem.

She only knew that Xiangyang's soldiers from Jingzhou were six or seven times more powerful than Cao Wei's soldiers, so there was no reason why they couldn't defeat them.

Report! ~

"Lord," the messenger suddenly broke in, glanced at Cai, and stopped what he was saying.

Liu Biao waved his hand indifferently: "Tell me what's going on."

"My lord, General Zhang Yun has surrendered to Cao Cao, and Xiangyang has been captured by Cao Cao. Cao Wei has raised three armies, and I am afraid they have reached the border of northern Jing by this time!"

"What!" Cai's eyes suddenly widened: "Cao Cao is not dead? He is really not dead!"

Cao Cao is not dead, and the first to face the wrath of King Wei is undoubtedly the Cai family in Xiangyang.

When Cai escaped for her life, she did not take everyone in the Cai family with her.

Liu Biao felt happy for a while. He had obviously expected it.

That day, he just followed Cai's words and agreed to murder Cao Cao.

Anyone with any brain would know that most of the Jingzhou army was composed of domestic slaves, so it was absolutely impossible for them to be a rival to Cao Wei's army.

What's more, there are so many powerful generals around Cao Cao. Even if he is truly defeated, there will still be no problem in breaking through the encirclement.

But after this exchange, Liu Biao did not suffer any loss.

The Cai family has power in every county in Jingzhou. Now that the head of the family, Cai Mao, has died at the hands of the Cai family, and the direct lineage in Xiangyang City cannot come out, he can completely rely on the Cai family to collect all the money and food from the soldiers and armor of each county.

Now as long as he takes advantage of the opportunity to cross the Yangtze River, he will be the real lord of Jingzhou in the land of Jingnan!

As for the life and death of the Cai family? What does Liu Biao have to do with him?

All he paid was nothing more than a dispensable Zhang Yun.

When the news came back to Xiangyang, Cao Cao smiled crookedly.

Far away, Zhang Wu heard the hearty laughter in the Zhou Mu Mansion. Entering the mansion, all the civil and military officials have gathered.

"Father-in-law, why are you so happy?"

"Look at this."

Zhang Wu stepped forward and took a look at the battle report, but he didn't find anything interesting about it.

"Mr. Cai poisoned Cai Mao. What would my father-in-law be happy about? Hasn't Cai Mao already returned to Wei? Let me tell you, he rushed back in a hurry, most likely to plead guilty."

Cao Cao leaned on the spacious seat at the head and leisurely opened a volume of "Sun Tzu". "Look, he's not here to plead guilty. Do you need to lead troops to plead guilty?"

"Isn't it said in the letter? Cai Mao's army only has more than ten thousand soldiers. My father-in-law will not think that he is here to attack Xiangyang, right?"

"No wonder Mr. Fengxiao laughed at you for being a barbarian. Cai Mao did not come to attack the city, but he came to put pressure. Elite naval forces are something Wei is in short supply. So he thought that as long as he came to plead guilty, he would have to pardon the Cai family's crimes. He is guilty of treason. If the cancer in Jingzhou is not cured, what will be the use of dominating Jingbei?"

So it’s best if Cai Mao dies?

"But once Cai Mao dies, who will act as a naval force for me, Cao Wei Cao?"

Xun Yu smiled and said: "Zi Qian need not worry. Huang Zu of Jiangxia and all the navy generals have written letters to the king of Wei. There are still variables in Cai Mao's life. Now that Cai Mao dies, all the navy will naturally return to Wei. And Xuzhou one In the land, the general Tai Shi Ci has been training the naval force day and night. It can take as long as three years or as little as one year to form an army. There is no need to worry about it. Moreover, as soon as Cai Mao died, the promise made by Yunxiao that day was naturally cancelled."

Cao Cao interrupted: "Okay, if you come in just in time, I will order you to chase Liu Biao. Remember, Liu Biao has to cross the Yangtze River alive, and the remaining people will die quickly, especially Liu Cong."

Zhang Wu thought about it and guessed it. Cao Cao had clearly made up his mind to order Liu Biao to cross the river to be the troublemaker.

To put it bluntly, he just sent it over to add trouble to Sun Ce.

Now that Jiangdong's little overlord is in full swing, Liu Yao, the shepherd of Yangzhou, is hard to resist. Once Sun Ce easily captures the entire Yangzhou, he will surely become powerful, and it will be difficult to deal with it again.

Adding Liu Biao would be different.

Liu Biao and Liu Yao had the same ancestry, and he had a grudge against Sun Ce for killing his father, so he became Liu Yao's assistant both in public and private affairs.

What's more, if the heirs are cut off, no matter how hard it is to cause trouble, the old guy can still be delayed until he is old. Once Liu Biao died, Jingnan would not be able to become a springboard for Cao Wei to attack south of the Yangtze River.

But in this case, Liu Biao cannot die, and the credit for chasing Liu Biao will actually be much smaller.

In the battle of Jingbei, Xun Yu will definitely be the first to make the most of his victory, and the rest is to conquer the city and gain the most credit.

Now the three armies have mobilized to attack Jingbei in an all-round way. In addition, there are still elite soldiers in the city, so they can fight.

Cao Cao dismissed Zhang Wu immediately because he wanted to give more credit to other generals.

After figuring out the joints, Zhang Wu immediately ordered: "Cao Xiu, go and order all the eight hundred Yunhui, and follow me in pursuit!"

"Huh? General, me?"

Zhang Wu raised his eyebrows: "Why, you kid still doesn't want to?"

"No. The general will take the order."

"Pang De, after I and I leave, you will serve as General Yunhui and stay under my father-in-law's tent for his service!"

"This general will definitely live up to the general's trust."

"Cao Pi, Xia Houba, you two are temporarily deputy generals of Yunhui. If you lose someone to me, you will definitely be killed when I come back!"

Lieutenant General Yunhui! Although it is only temporary.

Cao Pi and Xia Houba's eyes lit up, and they came out one after another and shouted: "We will definitely live up to the general's trust!"

Zhang Wu transferred Cao Xiu specifically to give others a chance to thank him.

It's very simple. Despite Cao Xiu's young age, he has followed Zhang Wu for the longest time, and his merits are almost comparable to Ma Chao.

This time Yunxiao Cixun can make it if Ma Chao can make it, and he will not be short of this credit.

Cao Cao took a deep look at Cao Pi. Once upon a time, his second son, who was not favored by him, could one day become Yunhui's deputy general.

Although he knew very well that all this was because of himself, if he was not his son. When it comes to seniority, he has absolutely no part in it.

But so what?

At this moment, he was either the second son of King Wei, or simply the deputy general of Yunhui!

"Okay, go and come back quickly. Jie'er has to talk about it in front of Gu again. She is obviously going out to play with her. Unexpectedly, there is a war again. Her husband doesn't have time to accompany her."

"The general will get the order!"
